FAQs for Kentsboro
Could my house in Kentsboro contain asbestos?
That depends on when it was built and altered: asbestos products were used until 1999, so pre-2000 homes and extensions in Kentsboro may have it. Common places include garage roofs, textured ceilings, floor tiles, soffits and flues.
How far is Kentsboro from London?
Kentsboro is about 68 miles from central London, well within our area.
Should I check for asbestos before buying?
Of course. A pre-purchase survey, arranged with the seller’s permission, shows what asbestos is there before you exchange.
Do I need my asbestos tested before removal?
If it hasn’t been identified, yes. The removal method depends on the material.
Do you give written quotes?
Every time: the quote is in writing and sets out what’s included, and whether VAT is included.
Can you quote from photos?
Often we can quote from clear photos and a description; if not, we’ll arrange to see it.
What’s the difference between a test and a survey?
Testing tells you about particular materials; a survey looks at everything in scope, including things you hadn’t spotted.
Do I need to move out?
Outdoor work rarely affects you indoors. Indoor work areas are kept closed off until finished.
For businesses and landlords in Kentsboro
Landlords of single homes don’t have the same duty to manage as non-domestic duty holders, but contractors still need to know about asbestos before they work.
If your business premises in Kentsboro were built before 2000, you should have an asbestos register and management plan, and contractors must be told what’s there.
What’s included, and what is not
To be clear about the scope:
- Replacing what’s removed, such as a roof or ceiling, is typically separate
- Removal in strong wind or heavy rain may need rescheduling
- Some jobs must be notified first, which affects the start date
If in doubt, ask: we’ll recommend a test, a survey or removal.
What we deal with
- Bitumen roof felt
- Soffits (cement)
- Gutters and downpipes
- Floor tiles and adhesive
- Panels and boards
- Flue pipes
- Water tanks
- Garage and shed roofs
- Asbestos cement sheets
- Artex and textured coatings
Should you do it yourself?
HSE’s advice to the public is not to try to repair or remove asbestos yourself. Higher-risk materials such as lagging, sprayed coatings and most insulating board must only be dealt with by an HSE-licensed contractor.
Home testing kits exist, but you have to disturb the material to use one. HSE advises that samples are best taken by a competent person.
Which option is right?
Covering or sealing asbestos is sometimes an alternative to removal, but it remains in place and has to be recorded. Sometimes a test shows removal isn’t needed, because the material is clear.
